@cyrilpedia I always get the next variant before the new vaccine comes out. Guess I shouldn't be pissed about that. :)

@zleap Oh, I'm a civil engineer, and it's sooo boring! I used civil engineering stories to put the kids to bed.

@zleap He needs to fly off in his jet somewhere. :)

@acjay I've written about that and it's somewhere in the archives. Basically, I've defined a condition called 'Brilliantitis' that is a brain defect from Northern Europe, probably the Vikings. It is a sliding scale of brain serotonin and it is hereditary, about 1 in 3 kids. It leads to great depression by 40, but the super-bright die early. Strikes poets, artists, etc. All the bright people self-medicate with booze, drugs, etc. If you can avoid early death, then start taking Paxil in micro doses, near 40, and then heavier. I get the brain storms in the morning and whack it down with cannabis, if its bad. Without drugs the brain storms last all night, and you are more suicidal.

#physics #weather **Happy Toronto** Not quite California-grade, but fun for us.

@magicaltrout Ha, the worst is playing 'candy crunch' on the phone. The key to happiness is to have every disk in your back made of rubber. When they turn to stone, yipes!

@JustMenniss That's neat. My son has one of the first Ford electric cars with practically no range in the winter. I call it the toy car.

@magicaltrout Find the book 'Treat your neck' and steal it. Makes you feel good. Seriously, if you are young enough, then do 'pigeons' where you push your chin in. If you are over the hill, then you need that horrible German surgery where they go through the front of your neck and tap in vampire stakes. Look it up and cringe! Doesn't work for long.

@acjay The mechanism for 'genius' is to have no serotonin in your brain. Does not lead to a long life.

@nomi Alone in my bed
My brain is storming
I whack it with my cannabis stick

@SETIEric Neat, I am now adding that hashtag to my post. With all this rain, a new hashtag will be #soggyearthquakes :)

@users Is that clipping or saturation? :)

@cyrilpedia In Canada, we'll trade you penicillin for tylenol. :)

@lupyuen I *knew* it was the League of Corrupt Gentlemen. :)

#physics #weather **Siberian Freeze** This is only funny because it's the washpost, and last year Siberia was the poster-child for selected 'heat stories'. If you look at the temp anomaly map, you warm and colder than normal spots. **'Those who lack nuance'** just zoom into the warm spots for their stories.

#physics #weather **North America just gets mucky weather** Yeah for us! the Calicanes are just spilling warm air over the mountains. We have a bit of a 'clipper' and then muck. We can dance and go 'La La' that's there's no winter for us.

#physics #weather **Calicanes now beyond Cat 4 hurricanes** Probably Cat 7. Take these hurricanes and throw them off the coast of Florida. What do you see? No hurricane planes available, they can't be given a 'Magnitude'. **They don't exist,** according to the dogma. They are just 'lazy rivers'. **La La.** And endless more are going to be formed. This is the 'ice cycle' coming to bite you. :)

#physics #weather **UK gets the big freeze** I was expecting a narrow jet down the length, but it has curved around and hit with a full broadside. The Arctic headpond (blob of cold air) is still spilling down the spill gates.
-note: with all dams there are spill gates and channels to lead flood water safely away. It is bad to overflow the dam.
--note2 - all spills are still powerful

#physics ##weather **Calicanes fill the whole Pacific** In our last episode, we were left wondering if new 'things' that cannot be named, were still being produced at the chocolate (storm) factory. It's nuanced. Looks like a new baby could form if only the big sisters got out of the way, and visited Ellen.
